Water heaters have almost become the necessary appliances for every household, but some serious electric shock accidents still occur frequently. Because the electric water heaters use a special environment, when the user is wet and has a small leakage current, life hazards may occur. So today, we ask the water heater experts to talk about the safety misunderstanding in the use of water heaters.
Misunderstanding 1: Qualified water heater = safe bath
Many people think that the products of electric water heaters are qualified, and there is no worries about bathing. According to reports, the standard of electric water heaters in China requires that the grounding wire in the user's home must be good. Due to historical reasons, many building grounding systems are not good or even lacking, such as misconnections, aging lines, private wires, poor quality switch sockets, and water pipes as grounding wires. The line is live, causing an electric shock. In this environment of use, even a qualified water heater cannot guarantee a safe bath.
Myth 2: Pulling out the power plug will make the bath safe.
Due to the frequent occurrence of electric shocks in electric water heaters, people are naturally worried about the use of electric water heaters. Some citizens will unplug the plugs after the heaters are heated. However, in addition to connecting the circuits, the water heaters are inevitably connected to the water pipes. . In some buildings where the grounding wire is not good or there is no grounding wire at all, some people will connect the grounding wire to the water pipe and let the water pipe serve as the grounding of the building. In this case, if the electrical appliances in one household have leakage, the water pipes in the whole building will be charged. The user who is using the water heater to bathe, although the plug of the water heater is unplugged, will be injured by the current drawn by the water pipe.
